一项研究发现,空气中的微塑料可能会推动云的形成,影响天气和气候。 A study finds airborne microplastics may boost cloud formation, impacting weather and climate.

最近的一项研究表明,空气中的微塑料可以在较温暖的温度下生产冰晶,而不是在没有微塑料的温度上生产冰晶,从而增强云的形成。 A recent study reveals that airborne microplastics can enhance cloud formation by producing ice crystals at warmer temperatures than those without microplastics. 这表明它们可能会影响天气和气候, 制造云层, 其条件通常不会支持它们。 This suggests they may influence weather and climate by creating clouds under conditions that wouldn't typically support them. 研究人员强调必须进一步调查云形成高度的微塑料浓度及其与其他冰核粒子相比的影响。 Researchers highlight the importance of further investigations into microplastic concentrations at cloud formation altitudes and their effects compared to other ice-nucleating particles.
